Edith Nesbit - Over And Undone
Work rating: Low

IF one might hope that when we say farewell 
    To life, we two might but be one at last! 
    But we look back on a divided past, 
And a divided future must foretell. 
Apart we sowed the seed that flowers in hell, 
    The seed that blooms in heaven apart we cast: 
    See what remembrances my heart holds fast-- 
Ask your own heart what deeds you deem done well! 


The memory I find my heaven in 
Is that one hand-touch you regret as sin; 
Your goodness, dear, that stood between us two 
And made my hell, may make a heaven for you; 
So evermore must lie our souls between 
The kiss unkissed, the infinite might-have-been!
